    All of the tour was very interesting and made more interesting by Richard, our guide. He was very knowledgeable about the castle and made it more fun.

    Our guide, Richard, made history come to life with his story telling skills. Most guides are decent with the exception of projecting their voices, Richard could be well heard even with the wind and surrounding noise. The grounds and castle are beautiful and interesting. If you're into history, you'll love this tour. If you're not into history, still go, just don't pay attention but you'll be missing out!
